I am looking for a tongue jack that has a larger then normal tire, maybe 8" or so. I want to be able to roll the tear around just on the three wheels. The larger wheel is easier to move over rough stuff is what I am thinking.

Try surplus stores. Or an airfilled tire used on hand carts. You might have to make a special bracket tho.....

If you have a Tractor Supply near you, ours had quite an assortment last time I was in.

Thanks, I will check that out. We don't have any near here but Wed. we are taking a trip and there is one in the town we are going to. I'll drop the wife at a fabric store, that should give me plenty of time to hit Tractor Supply. We will see which one of us can do the most damage!
